Chapter 118 – Pearl Gambling! (2/2)
“Hahaha…… This is also about 1.4 cm!”
Dong Xuebing saw the two flawless pearls and quickly shouts BACK!
The time was reversed.
“We have opened quite a lot. The white pearls’ quality is quite good. But how come 1.4 cm good quality golden pearl did not appear? Even if we are unlucky, at least one should appear by now.”
“There are still a lot of mussels left. It should appear soon.”
Dong Xuebing cleared his throat and walked over. He bent over and picked up the mussel before the boss. “Boss, I want this too. This is also 6,000?”
The boss looked at Dong Xuebing and nodded. He grabbed another pearl mussel and breaks It open. The pearls inside were ordinary golden pearls. What was wrong today? How come all the pearls are so average? Was there something wrong with my methods? Cannot be…… The previous batch also used the same method, and there were several high-grade pearls!
The following hour…….
BACK!
“Boss, I want this one.”
BACK!
“Give me this. Not that one. It’s this one. Yes……”
BACK!
“This is also 6,000? Fine. I will pay you later.”
Back!
“Ah! I want this too.”
Dong Xuebing used up 9 BACKs, and he only has 1 more BACK left. His net had 9 mussels. All the golden pearls in his mussels were between 1.4 cm to 1.7 cm. There were a total of 11 pearls in the mussels he chose. Two of the mussels had two pearls above 1.4 cm each. He only has one BACK left, and he was in no hurry to use it. He wants to wait for a big pearl above 1.7 cm or two big pearls in one mussel.
He waited…….
A 1.5 cm golden pearl appears. Dong Xuebing did not buy it.
A 1.6 cm golden pearl appears. Dong Xuebing still did not act.
A 1.3 cm and 1.5 cm pearls appeared in one mussel. Dong Xuebing hesitated for a moment but chose not to buy it.
This was also a good thing. He left some good pearls for the boss if not, the boss would get suspicious.
200 mussels…….
The boss and his workers had filled 4 pails of pearls. The worker went out and brought two more containers back. Of course, the good pearls were not mixed with other pearls in those plastic pails. Those were kept in a small bag.
It was already 2.40 pm in the afternoon. Dong Xuebing thought if he should just buy the next 1.6 cm pearl and leave that place when he heard the working shouting with excitement.
That darker complexion worker was shouting excitedly: “Boss! This mussel has 3 big pearls!”
“3?!” Dong Xuebing and the boss were stunned. “How big is it?”
“One of them is 1.6 cm, and the other two are 1.5 cm!” That worker raised the pearls for them to see. “They are all round and flawless!”
It was already rare to find a pearl above 1.5 cm, let alone 3. The boss put down his knife and wanted to go over to take a closer look. But suddenly he felt something in the opened mussel he was holding. He stopped and dug into the flesh of the mussel. A 1.5 cm pearl pop up. “Hah! This mussel is good too.”
Dong Xuebing saw this and got excited!
He immediately shouts BACK!
The scenes in front of him changed!
The next moment, Dong Xuebing was looking at the boss and worker holding their kitchen choppers, about to open the mussels.
Dong Xuebing face changes and quickly reach out: “Wait! Don’t open it first! Wait a minute!”
The boss and worker were interrupted. Both looked up at Dong Xuebing. “What is it?”
Just in time. “Ah…… This mussel and the one you are holding. Yes. I want these two.” Before both of them could say anything, Dong Xuebing reached over and took the mussels from them!
Alright!
